Jul 12 2023 Sergey Lavrov’s written interview with Indonesian newspaper Kompas
❓ Question: If the war in Ukraine continues, what will happen next? What will Russia do?
💬 Sergey Lavrov: I think it would be correct to start answering your question by explaining the root causes of the events in Ukraine. We often hear that the conflict supposedly started in February 2022 with Russia’s “unprovoked aggression.” This… Continue reading -
Jul 11 2023 Doubling Down from NATO

Jul 10 2023 Why are there no slums in China?
Our China piece this week is from Dongsheng News:
With over 20 million inhabitants each, Shanghai and Beijing are among the “hypercities” of the Global South, including Delhi, São Paulo, Dhaka, Cairo, and Mexico City, far surpassing the “megacities” of the Global North like London, Paris, or New York1.

Jul 10 2023 A “Stinking landfill of information garbage”
AKA: The Empire Flings Poo
Note: I’ve noted on various occasions that none of the US information can be trusted on the face of it. What we can do, is to take notice of it, and see what the trend is. This article details and outlines the clear trend of the attempts to militarize Russian youth.… Continue reading -

Jul 08 2023 Dmitry Medvedev: Biden’s Armageddon Dream
From Medvedev’s Channel
Sleepy senile Biden said that two years ago in Geneva he denied the President of Russia guarantees that Ukraine would not join NATO. Like I’m done, I didn’t cave in under the Russians!

Jul 08 2023 Transcript of part of Janet Yellen’s speech in China, with comments.
Up to now, Yellen’s China visit takes a low profile in Chinese media. She is not treated as an important guest, but she is nevertheless treated kindly. In fact, she is spending more time with American business in China, than with the Chinese. There was a rainbow in the sky as she arrived and it… Continue reading
